Chapter 19: The Girl Who Wants to Go Back to School
The next day, I came back with some action movies on my portable hard drive, and a group of old men watched with interest around the computer.
"Haha, haha, yes! " The deaf man laughed and shouted as he watched.
"Deaf, what are you shouting, don't shout! Let people hear what's going on!" Fu Shandong grabbed the deaf man's arm.
But the deaf man turned a deaf ear, and continued to laugh and watch with full attention.
Seeing the deaf like this, everyone hurriedly turned off the computer so as not to be discovered.
"What are you doing, what are you doing, why don't you let me see it" The deaf man was extremely angry when he saw that the computer was turned off, and he wanted to open it himself.
"It's okay for you to be quiet, don't look at it, go to work" Team Leader Zhang took the computer away with an angry face and locked it in the warehouse.
Now everyone didn't see it, and they all began to complain about the deaf, and the deaf man scratched his head and giggled.
In this way, as long as there is a deaf person, everyone will not look at it, the deaf person will go out to work, everyone will take it out to see, and a few times the deaf person will find out, and the deaf person will be aggrieved and unhappy, and when he returns to the office, he will drop things, shouting blindly, until he is not happy until he sees him. Later, another electrician, Master Gu, got an MP4 out of nowhere, copied some movies in it, and showed it to the deaf in the building where no one lived there, so the deaf stopped yelling in the office.
I don't know why the snow is so heavy this winter, there is always a feeling that there is no end to it, and the white snowflakes are falling layer after layer, as if they want to drown the whole world in an endless white sea.
I sometimes don't go back to the dormitory when I see the snow at noon, and I make my own bowl of instant noodles in the office. Liu Tou didn't go back, it was also instant noodles.
"Liu Tou, you have your own pension, and your daughter is still working in the court, why are you here to suffer this crime!" One day at noon, the office was just us, and I asked him while eating instant noodles.
"It's okay at home, I have bad legs and feet, I don't want to go out, and having a job here can give me a little motivation to go out. In fact, I came here to see the fire protection system, and the property company of the fire protection system in this community never answered, so I was arranged in the maintenance team, and when the fire protection system was launched, I would leave," Liu Tou explained.
"Look at the fire system? I don't see it, Liu Tou, you still have that technology," I laughed.
"That thing is fooling, the fire department has to check it, and it has to be safe. To put it bluntly, there is a person there every day, just come to check and see someone. Liu Tou shook his head.
"Oh!" I realized when I heard Liu Tou say this, no wonder there are so many places where fires occur.
"Xiao Shen, this meal is also finished, you take out the movie, let's digest and digest the food" Liu Tou had a flattering look.
I saw that the store had MP4 as a special price last day, so I bought one for 300 yuan, and watched movies in my idleness, and there were some action movies in it. I smiled and took out the P4 to find the piece inside and handed it to Liu Tou, who was lying on the bench and looked at it.
"Xiao Shen, you young people should look less at these things" Liu Tou suddenly uttered a sentence that made me at a loss.
"When I watched this film at the time, I felt very cool, but it was not good for my health to watch it, if I was a few years younger, I had the current salary in my hand to go out and play crazy. Liu Tou said through gritted teeth while staring at the screen tightly.
I heard Liu Tou say this, I was also speechless, thinking that this old guy and I were talking about maintaining my body here, but I was lying there with an old firewood stick, it was really speechless.
"Xiao Shen, you are catching up with the good times, when I was as old as you, let alone looking for a woman, even holding hands is a hooliganism, you have gone to college, those female college students are so open, if only I were still as young as you" Liu Tou looked regretful.
"It's okay now! The love between men and women is not about age, but only about feeling," I deliberately teased Liu Tou.
"If this is a feeling, I also have it! When I was born, I also worked in this property company, but in another branch, I knew a woman who swept the floor, the woman was tall, long white, took a fancy to me, led me to his house, picked up my clothes and seduced me" Liu Tou said excitedly.
"Do you have something to do with her?" I smiled.
"No, she said that her refrigerator was broken and she wanted me to buy one for her, so what can I do? This man shouldn't get married, if he takes out the bride price money to play, he changes his wife every night" Liu Tou clicked his lips, as if he was fantasizing about hiring different brides every night.
"Listen to what you mean, you often go out to play," I looked at Liu Tou with a slightly mocking look.
"What's the matter, an old lamp twister like me is more resistant than you young people," Liu Tou saw that I didn't believe it and hurriedly spoke out to support himself.
"Hehe, why don't you believe it, Jiang is still old and spicy, but Liu Tou, don't you pay your salary to your aunt?" I asked with a smile. At the same time, I remembered the old man I saw that day.
"Your aunt has passed away a long time ago, and I am too lonely at home. Otherwise, I can come to work here!" Liu Tou sighed.
"Then you didn't think about a sunset red," I laughed.
"That's it! Liu Tou shook his head
"Hey! Now the country is aging more and more serious, there are more and more empty nest single elderly, this society is not only lacking in young girls, but also in the old ladies, like you who are depressed uncles can only have nothing to drill into small hotels, or enter the grass in the park, many people are arguing that there is a surplus of Russian beauties, there are too many singles in our country, and we should introduce some foreign girls to solve the problem of singles, I suggest that while introducing little girls, we should also take care of the needs of the old man, and caring for the elderly is the responsibility of our whole society!" I sighed and said a lot.
"Xiao Shen, you really deserve to have graduated from college, you are too level" Liu Tou stretched out his thumb with a look of admiration.
"Generally, Liu Tou, men have to be fierce, if you have an opportunity, don't miss it. I nodded humbly and suggested to Liu Tou.
I don't know if Liu Tou listened to my advice, or watched too many movies and watched a certain insect on the brain, in short, he used the phone of the unit to harass the big tall man with white skin that he said at noon, but he didn't eat it, but provoked a mouthful of hair. The old lady went to the telecommunications bureau to find out the location of the phone, and came to our unit to settle accounts with Liu Tou.
I saw what kind of big, white-skinned, black-skinned dominatrix it was. Liu Tou was so frightened that he ran directly into the toilet to lock the door, and let the woman scold and cry, and the whole unit came out to see the jokes, and the woman shouted out the matter, and everyone laughed after hearing it, and no one helped the old Liu Tou to calm things down.
The woman made a fuss for a while and was taken away by the director who rushed to hear the news, and then Lao Liu Tou also lowered his head in embarrassment and dragged a sloping leg to the director's office under everyone's mocking eyes. I don't know how it was solved in the end, in short, Liu Tou has no face to do it here. Before leaving, he told me with a sad face that he also wanted to buy an MP4 himself, and he was free for me to help him get a film.
In a blink of an eye, the Spring Festival came, the school suddenly became empty, my parents asked me to go home for the New Year, I didn't go home under the pretext that the unit was on duty, this is the first time I haven't been at home for the Spring Festival in more than 20 years, my uncle beckoned me over, I said that the class has been scheduled, I want to earn more overtime pay, so I didn't go. The other three people in the dormitory were gone, and I was the only one left.
On the evening of Chinese New Year's Eve, catching up with the supermarket special, I bought a bag of quick-frozen dumplings, twelve large tin cans of beer, cut another piece of beef, and bought some dried tofu, red sausage, peanuts, kimchi, ready to celebrate the New Year by myself, I came out of the supermarket, it was snowing outside, and I walked to the bedroom against the snow.
Just as I was struggling to walk with my head down, a woman in her forties came out of the snowstorm, her hair mixed with white hair was unkempt by the cold wind, and her face was red from the cold
"Young man, I would like to ask you something, where is the school security room?"
"Walking down from the main entrance of the school, there is a row of three-story buildings at the first turn, and the first floor is there. Is there anything you can do?" I asked, confused.
"My girl has the security guards arrested," the woman said, her daughter in a more anxious tone.
"How can you still be arrested," I couldn't help but be stunned. Because the security guards are uneven, some security guards will deliberately find fault and bully them when they see honest and beautiful female students.
"My daughter also graduated from this school, undergraduate, studying economic management, and she didn't find a job for three years after graduation, and she had a problem with her head when she stayed at home, so she had to go back to school. Yesterday, she secretly ran out and took the train to come to the original dormitory, and the downstairs guard did not let her in, so she smashed the glass of the door and let the security guard take it away. I was in a hurry to catch the afternoon train. The look in her eyes made my heart panic, and I was a little afraid to look at her face.
"Auntie, don't worry, I'll take you there, if you just smash the glass and lose some money, you'll be fine" I comforted softly, with mixed feelings in my heart.
I took the woman to the security room and found her daughter, a girl with a pale face and cold eyes. I didn't stay long, explained it and hurried away. I didn't want to look at it, although the wind and snow outside were heavy, it couldn't blow away my depression.
Feeling distraught, I returned to my bedroom, took off my cold clothes and was still on the bed, a feeling of exhaustion that I had never felt before hit my body, I sat down on a small stool, looking up at the roof of the shed that was blinded by the light, and my heart was empty.
Although the city is big, there is no real place for me, and although my room in the house can only fit a single bed, it makes me feel grounded. Although this school is still young, it is not the same place I first came to four years ago. Where is my path?
I opened a can of beer and drank it in one gulp, and the cold drink made me shiver. But I didn't want to stop, because I felt that as soon as the wine stopped, all those troubles and sorrows would come to mind. For the first time, I hated why I was reading these books, and if my mind was empty, I might not think about anything, and I might have accepted my fate, but I was not reconciled!
